with him, and accepted his graceful at
tentions with smiling pleasure.
1t was hers that he was introduced to
Miss Susan Harte and her nlcce and sup
posed heiress. Miss Maude Maxwell.
They were Indies OF position. refined
and graceful; the younger ono lovely In
the freshness OF her youth. pretty
blonde face. and slender figure; the
In every word cultivated intellect and
strong common-sonso.
Bob White, Mr.. Randalls friend. after
the introduction, spoke his mind with
frank II vulgar freedom:
go In for the heiress, Joe. They
say the old lady is worth q quarter OF a
million, and Miss Maudo is her only rela.
tive. Anyone can see that they arc de-
voted to each other
And anyone could also 500 evcry evil
dence of wealth In their surroundings.
Their own carriage, with two magni-
flcent horses. was with them for thoIr
daily use. their costumes were OF tho
most costly materials, their jewelry
was superb. A lady's maid attended
them, and they occupied an entire suite
OF rooms at the only hotel.
Friendship led to intimacy, and Mr..
Hnndall did try to fascinate tho heiress,
whose simperlng prettiness covered O
cold heart and aconmon-piace mind.
To dress we'll, to be centre OF atirac-
tion for bowling beaux, were the objects
of her ambition, and her conversations
never rose above the level OF the smallest
OF small.talk.
Though no had always seemed to lack
business ability, Mr.. Randall was no
fool. and he found himself evening after
evening turning from Miss Maxwell's
vapid talk TO the fresh strong mind that
shone through her aunt's conversation.
Miss Harte was an accomplished
musician, with rich coritralto voice, and
love ofmusic had always amounted to a
passion with Mr. Randall, so there was
o strong bond of sympathy there.
Tho summer wore away pleasantly,
and 1t was only when closed cottages
and a deserted beach told OF departing
guests that Joseph Randall asked him
self seriously how his summer filtration
was TO end.
He was not conceited man, vet
